Manchester United Players Rated And Slated In Embarrassing Loss To Chelsea: Smalling With 3/10

Manchester United’s woeful winless tale at the Bridge for half a decade continued as Alvaro Morata’s solitary goal sealed a massive win for Chelsea. The Red Devils were dismal on the night and here’s how they’ve been rated:-

Manchester United Players Rated And Slated

GK: David De Gea – 7.5/10

Kept the margin from increasing and made a few notable saves to deny Morata and Hazard’s efforts.

RWB: Antonio Valencia – 3/10

Largely ineffective and he couldn’t even trouble Alonso whenever he got the ball. Abysmal.

CB: Eric Bailly – 6/10

Kept a firm grip on Eden Hazard and tracked him throughout. Tidy and reliable.

CB: Chris Smalling – 3/10

Struggled to cope with the clever feet of Morata and lost him completely for his goal.

CB: Phil Jones – 6.5/10

Gave away a few silly fouls but he looked to be the best defender today.

LWB: Ashley Young – 4/10

Troubled Zappacosta early on but he wasn’t even in the game as the match went on.

CM: Ander Herrera – 6/10

Defended well and ran his lungs out but it all went in vain.

CM: Nemanja Matic – 8/10

Tried his best to control the proceedings in the middle but he was overwhelmed. He’s maintained his consistency and he needs his teammates to step up.

CAM: Henrikh Mkhitaryan – 1/10

Not at all influential. Disgusting.

FW: Marcus Rashford – 5/10

Created some trouble with his movements but the end product was underwhelming to a large extent.

FW: Romelu Lukaku – 3/10

Hardly got any service and he obviously couldn’t make an impact due to that. Had an early effort which was saved by Courtois.

Substitutes –

FW: Anthony Martial – 4/10

Didn’t get the freedom or space to try to influence the game.

CM: Marouane Fellaini – 6/10

A little casual and rusty but his presence was undoubtedly noticeable. He did well to fend off the defenders later on and have a huge chance which was saved by Courtois. United need him badly.
